What the record holds
It sits in New Britain, right in the centre of New Britain.
Veterans Stadium was opened in 1982 and operated by New Britain, which puts it at 44 years old.
At a stated 8,500 this takes an entire conference in one room rather than one track of it.

How attendees reach it
33 km (21 mi) to Bradley International Airport (BDL) is far enough to change the shape of the programme: a first morning session will lose the people who flew in that day.
1.5 km (0.9 mi) out from the middle of New Britain — close enough to book a downtown hotel block, far enough that people will expect transport laid on after dark.
New Britain has 11 venues mapped in total and a population of 75,871. The New Britain guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Programming it
A room this size is a plenary and nothing else. Keynotes, awards and general sessions work; the breakouts, the exhibition and the catering all have to happen somewhere else, so the venue is really the anchor of a campus rather than the whole event.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- festivals
An audience of 8,500 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
